27059 gets a mention on WNXX, and is to be moved away for repairs. It does say where to, but can anybody here give more information?

From what I've read, it seems that UKRL will looking after it, and making repairs, for Sandwell Council.

Haven't seen any discussion beyond that though.

I got the same idea, but thought I would ask to see if anybody would give further information.

Looking at AbRail, it is showing as in the UKRS pool and LR depot, which is Leicester.

Has it been moved yet? I could see the old Class 20 at the side of the carriage shed yesterday, but did not notice the 27 anywhere - but I was on the footbridge so couldn't see everything._________________Sharpo (happily avoiding fakebook & twitter)

Do we know what will happen after the body repairs? Is a mechanical overhaul included, and where will the loco be based afterwards? I know that this is probably asking the wrong people, but perhaps someone can advise.

11am this morning it was waiting on track outside carriage works, just came back to see if I could get a photo of it on transporter, but it isn't here. Haulage company obviously arrived and loaded it very quickly._________________Sharpo (happily avoiding fakebook & twitter)
